A fine Georgian Dublin sterling silver stuffing spoon dating to 1785, featuring the distinctive hook terminal associated with late 18th-century Irish serving pieces. This impressive example bears an engraved armorial crest depicting a talbot, a traditional heraldic hound symbol associated with loyalty and nobility. The spoon displays the elegant proportions and substantial craftsmanship characteristic of Dublin silver of the Georgian period, with a large bowl designed for practical serving use. Measuring 11.5 inches in length and weighing a substantial 110 grams, it has excellent gauge and a commanding presence in the hand. It remains in very good antique condition with an attractive mellow patina and surface character consistent with more than two centuries of careful use. A wonderful example of Georgian Irish silver and a desirable addition to any collection of historic serving pieces or antique flatware.
Dimensions: 11.5" in length.
Weight is about 110 grams.
